To find [npc=131126] go out of the tower and walk around it to reach the balcony.
Speak to inquisitor and interact with Winston between cannons. You have to scout three spots:


  • Upper Corlain Gate spot is located at 31.0 21.2.

  • Corlain Town coordinates are 29.2 27.7.

  • Armory can be found at 25.2 35.7 spot.


Do not forget to use Evade ability when being targeted by Crossbowmen

Inquisitor Notley is outside around the back, sitting with his back against the wall.

When he gives you the whistle, there is no whistle in your bag, its a falcon hovering between the cannons. Click on it, you turn into the falcon. You fly to the 3 locations, which are big yellow targets. Things will try to kill you, click the 'Evade' button to stay alive. If you die, you end up back at the tower and you just continue on with the quest.

It just wasn't very clear for me when I did the quest.

The 3 places to scout :
/way Drustvar 31.0 21.2 Upper Corlain Gate
/way Drustvar 29.2 27.7 Corlain Town
/way Drustvar 25.2 35.7 Armory

Description

It would be wise to get a lay of the land before we put together a plan of action. Inquisitor Notley is an expert falconer, and a reliable scout. He utilizes an ancient relic to see through the eyes of his falcon, allowing him to survey great distances. Unfortunately, Notley was injured during the fighting. Nothing serious, but it's left him unable to concentrate enough to control his falcon. Perhaps you could help?

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The First WatchDrustvar · Level 20-60

    As you can see, the coven has conscripted my own guardsmen into their service. Though I am loath to battle my own, these men are too corrupted by the coven's magic to be saved. For them, death is the only mercy we can give. The Inquisitors and I can handle the regiment stationed outside.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Steady BallastDrustvar · Level 20-60

    The Armory presents us a ripe opportunity, <class>... one I suggest we take. If this battle were to draw out, we have little means to repair our arms and armor. A blacksmith is invaluable to any war effort, and Ballaster is one of our best. The Armory is but a short ride from here.
